weird disk usage shown in server

Posted by prashant1979, 09-18-2008, 08:28 AM
Hello, I am seeing a weird disk usage in one of my servers. The server has 2 hard drives of 160 GB each of which one is unpartitioned and it has 149 GB available space. However, I saw one directory having 189 GB of data which is impossible considering the size of the disk. I have deleted lot of data from the server and now I can see that the total usage in the hard drive is 96.7 GB which means I should now have only 52.3 GB available space in the hard drive. However, the free space displayed is 96.6 GB which is again impossible as I have only 149 GB available space. This is only with one drive. The other drive shows correct disk usage. What could be the reason behind this?
